Inter-Vector Interference Self-Cancellation Scheme for Differential OSDM in Underwater Acoustic Communications

Differential orthogonal signal-division multiplexing (OSDM) is attractive for underwater acoustic (UWA) communications because it can eliminate channel estimation, resulting in a substantial reduction of complexity at the receiver. However, when the channel is time-varying, it may suffer from serious inter-vector interference (IVI), which is...

Iterative Per-Vector Equalization for Orthogonal Signal-Division Multiplexing Over Time-Varying Underwater Acoustic Channels

Orthogonal signal-division multiplexing (OSDM) is a promising modulation scheme that provides a generalized framework to unify orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and single-carrier frequency-domain equalization. By partitioning each data block into vectors, it allows for a flexible configuration to trade off resource management...

Low-Complexity Equalization of Orthogonal Signal-Division Multiplexing in Doubly-Selective Channels

Orthogonal signal-division multiplexing (OSDM) is a generalized modulation scheme to bridge the gap between orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and single-carrier frequency-domain equalization. It allows significantly more flexibility in system design; however, over doubly-selective channels, it suffers from a special signal...

Eigendecomposition-Based Partial FFT Demodulation for Differential OFDM in Underwater Acoustic Communications

Differential orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is practically attractive for underwater acoustic communications since it has the potential to obviate channel estimation. However, similar to coherent OFDM, it may suffer from severe inter-carrier interference over time-varying channels. To alleviate the induced performance...
